I do not mean to imply any religious conotations with my chat name. It came about because of my former name 'ds401' sounded robotic. I hope you find your happiness once again on a chat line or whatever path you choose to follow. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion concerning religious beliefs and their approperiateness on Chat. I do appreciate that the "prayer" was held on a private chat; leaving the chat line open for various coversations. This is my opinion. Whether anyone thinks it is right or wrong is their own right. That is what an opinion is- something a person can decide whether or not it is right or wrong for they themselves or someone they care about. Smile Nancy --
